“Twirling Toward Freedom”

Overview • Factbook • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Commonwealth of Kalaska77 is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.579 billion Kalaska77ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grandpa Town. The average income tax rate is 65.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kalaska77ian economy, worth 202 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Retail, and Soda Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 128,224 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The police have been known to wiretap confessional boxes, the weather in Grandpa Town is always 'pigeons with a chance of droppings', elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, and artists are renowned for their ability to make art pieces out of thin air. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kalaska77's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kalaska77 is ranked 6,027^th in the world and 115^th in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 6,678.71 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
